Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (23 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: The Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has likened the German-led European Sky Shield Initiative, ESSI, to Israel's iron dome.

Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: The Minister for Health has the neck to come in here and claim that the pay and numbers strategy is not a recruitment moratorium when the health unions are telling us that is precisely what it is.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (22 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: Relatedly, did the Taoiseach raise with Keir Starmer the need to stop arms exports to Israel? Britain is a major arms supplier to Israel. Five days before the Taoiseach's meeting, the British Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, announced the suspension of only 30 export licences out of 350 to Israel.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Policies (22 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: I note the Taoiseach is quoted as saying the introduction of €90 fines for people on job seeker's payments who refuse to engage - so-called -with employment services is common sense.
